MVC :: Caching Items For DropDownList?

Jan 20, 2011

I have a dropdownlist that contains items from a database. The set of items are unlikely to ever change. At the moment, whenever a user tries to access the View with the dropdownlist, the code retrieves the data each time from the DB. I would like to change this so that the set of items are cached and load on the application start only.

Could somebody indicate the best mechanism for this scenario? I have read up on Enterprise library which is my current preference, though any alternatives (with reasons) would be welcome.

Google Chrome Caching DropDownList Selections

May 21, 2010

I'm experiencing what seems to be a caching issue with Google Chrome and Safari on my cart page. In the cart there are 2 dropdown lists. When you hit the checkout button after changing the values in the dropdown lists, it commits what's selected in the lists to the database.

It's a little bit hard to explain the unexpected behavior so I will try to write it out step by step with an illustration of my problem.

Lets say the first dropdown list has the values of:

VALUE1
VALUE2
VALUE3

And the second dropdown list has the values of:

DUMBO1
DUMBO2
DUMBO3

I add an item to my cart.

Screen Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

Database Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

I hit Checkout.

Database says: VALUE1, DUMBO1 (I can't see the dropdown lists after I hit checkout because i'm not at the cart page)

I hit the back button.

Screen Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

Database Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

I drop down the VALUE1 combo and select VALUE2, VALUE2 is selected momentarily and then the site posts back and VALUE1 is re-selected in the drop down list (from being reloaded from the DB)

MOMENTARILY Screen Says: VALUE2, DUMBO1

Database Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

THEN AFTER POSTBACK FROM DROPDOWNLIST_SELECTIONCHANGED EVENT

Screen Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

Database Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

Hit Checkout.

Database Says VALUE1 ,DUMBO1 (I can't see the dropdown lists after I hit checkout because i'm not at the cart page)

Go back.

Screen Says: VALUE2, DUMBO1

Database Says: VALUE1, DUMBO1

So it appears that it's remembering my selection of VALUE2 even though it jumped back to VALUE1 before I checked out.

It seems to be a caching problem, however I've got some no-cache code to prevent caching of that page that works great in firefox and internet explorer but seems to be failing in Chrome and Safari. I'm basically returning in the headers for the cart page: no-cache, no-store, and must-revalidate to attempt to prevent caching, but based on this scenario it seems to be caching the page anyway and not reloading it when I hit the back button.

Asp - Duplicate Items In Dropdownlist

Jan 5, 2011

I'm designing a web page with two dropdownlists, one for the Make of a car, the other for the Model, both bound to a database with separate SQLDataSources, and using a distinct statement. I add "All" at the top of both by setting appendDataBoundItems = true and adding items named all. Then when I fill the Make with a querystring all the model items get added twice (but only the databound items).Here's my code:

<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownMake" runat="server"
DataSourceID="SqlMakes" DataTextField="Make" DataValueField="Make"
AppendDataBoundItems="True" EnableViewState="False" AutoPostBack="True">
<asp:ListItem Selected="True" Value="All">All</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownModel" runat="server"
AppendDataBoundItems="True" AutoPostBack="True" DataSourceID="SqlModels"
DataTextField="Model" DataValueField="Model" EnableViewState="False">
<asp:ListItem>All</asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlMakes" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [Make] FROM [Parts]">
</asp:SqlDataSource>
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlModels" runat="server"
ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [Model] FROM [Parts] WHERE ([Make] = @Make)">
<SelectParameters>
<asp:ControlParameter ControlID="DropDownMake" Name="Make"
PropertyName="SelectedValue" />
</SelectParameters>
</asp:SqlDataSource>
'And in the VB file:
Protected Sub Page_Init(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Init
DropDownMake.SelectedValue = Request.QueryString("Make")
DropDownModel.SelectedValue = Request.QueryString("Model")
End Sub

If I remove the line "DropDownMake.SelectedValue = Request.QueryString("Make")" it doesnt produce duplicates anymore. What is going on?? I swear I've spent more time developing entire iphone app.

How To Add List Items To Dropdownlist In A Formview With Vb.net

Nov 26, 2010

I have a dropdownlist in a formview that looks like this:

<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList5" runat="server" AppendDataBoundItems="True"
DataSourceID="SqlDataSource6" DataTextField="StaffName"
DataValueField="StaffName" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("LetterName") %>'
Width="155px">
<asp:ListItem Value=""> </asp:ListItem>
</asp:DropDownList>

I am trying to add the value from a textbox which is also in the formview into the dropdownlist as a list item. I currently have this code for it:
Protected Sub Formview1_PreRender(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles FormView1.PreRender
Dim dropdown As DropDownList
Dim listvalue As TextBox
dropdown = FormView1.FindControl("dropdownlist5")
listvalue = FormView1.FindControl("textbox1")
dropdown.Items.Add(New ListItem(listvalue.Text, listvalue.Text))
End Sub

This code works and adds the new item to the dropdownlist if I have no SelectedValue set for my dropdownlist. However when I set the selectedValue I get the error message:

"'DropDownList5' has a SelectedValue which is invalid because it does not exist in the list of items.

Parameter name: value"

This is the bit I dont understand because the value does now exist in the list of items as it was added in from the textbox value. Does it try to do the selectedValue before adding my list item? If so how can I add the list item first, or do I need to set the selectedValue in the code after adding the list item?

C# - DropDownList Items Are Reset On SelectedIndexChanged?

Sep 17, 2010

I have a cascading dropdown list on my page. The first dropdown contains a list of events. The second dropdown contains a list of attendees. When an event is selected, an AJAX call is made to get the list of attendees for that event, and populate the second dropdown.

My problem is that for the attendees dropdown, I want the user to be redirected to a URL on the SelectedIndexChanged event, with the selected value in the query string. But on the SelectedIndexChanged event, all the items in the second dropdown are reset. Here's my code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">

$(document).ready(function()
{
$('#<%= ddlEvents.ClientID %>').change(function()
{
$.ajax({

[Code]....

When the SelectedIndexChanged event is hit, ddlAttendees is empty.

Does anyone know how I can keep the items in ddlAttendees?

DropDownList Control Does Not Show Items Property?

Aug 2, 2010

I'm using a text book to teach myself ASP.NET 3.5. I'm using Visual Web Developer 2008 express to create my pages. At this point in my text, the author has me drag a DropDownList control to the Web page and then tells me to go to the Properies window and look at the Items property. I don't see an Items property. I've doublechecked that I'm on my DropDownList control, but I see no Items property. Is this a bug in VWD, an error in the book, or just plain old User error?

I'd be willing to hard-code the property in the source window, but I don't know the syntax. I tried
items="Vanilla, Chocolate" but nothing appears in the list when I view the screen.

Web Forms :: How To Get List Of VALUES (not Items) From A Dropdownlist

For example, I may have a dropdown that displays "High", "Medium" and "Low", but returns values of "H", "M", "L". How can I easily get that list of HML?
